Lots done yesterday ! On the tractor at daylight. 3 acre clover plot fertilized. One acre plot (tilled a few days ago) fertilized, and seeded with buckwheat (will reseed with brassica mix in late July). The wife and I planted the garden : tomatoes, peppers, beans, potatoes, summer squash, zucchini, carrots, kale, buttercup squash. Took several Labatts Blue Lites to replace my lost fluids last night !!

This year focussing on getting a berry patch established next to the gulch so it hopefully will grow naturally and be relatively self sustaining in the future. Fingers crossed that the 3D electric deer fence actually works, as it seems like lots of east coasters use it successfully to keep out the white tail.

Mixed in a lot of more native berries:
Gooseberry
Mulberry trees
Rasberry
Aronia berry
Buffaloberry
Black currant
Gold currant
Chokecherry

Did get a nice surprise from the skies after finishing the fence install.

I looked at blueberry bushes yesterday. They were still $30 a bush. Last year after Memorial Day they went on sale for $5 each. We only bought 1 because we didn’t know if they were good bushes, but it’s looking good this spring! Im buying whatever they have left when they go on sale this year!

Tomatoes
Carrots

Had cucumbers and watermelon planted but my wife's dog thought that garden needed to be tilled up one last time, so I need to replant those this week.

48 Roma tomatoes-(we love homemade salsa)-hopefully they survive the next few nights of frost with my makeshift plastic.

Is there a particular recipe you use that you really like?

 

[choc dogs]

Roma, beefsteak, Anaheim and jalapeño peppers, Japanese and pickle cucumber snap peas, spuds, spinach, lettuce, arugula and radishes. They’ll be replaced by squash, watermelon and cantaloupe as the greens fade out.

A cold frame for spring and fall lettuce, and a rhubarb plant is the extent of my garden for the last several years. Would rather spend more time during the summer in the mountains camping right now.

View attachment 223069Here are the things my neighbor gave me. The bottom row was the seeds today. The tomato’s were last week but they were already 6” tall. He has a green house.

Green Zebras are great, you’ll love them. I’m planting next weekend. We never plant before Memorial Day and even then we’ve been snowed on after that.

That is a beautiful greenhouse! The produce they grow in AK is pretty amazing!

Since I am just a fat kid i think about food all day long. I plant my garden with recipes in mind. It is very rewarding when you can put a meal together using produce and meat you have acquired without help from others!

My wife has everything out and we still have snow on Baldy.
I bet she gets to start over.

It’s been a crazy year. I planted in record heat, I had 96 on my thermometer. We had frost one morning this week.
